DESCRIPTION
The SPX5205 is a positive voltage regulator with very low dropout voltage, output noise and ground current
(750μA at 100mA). V
OUT
has a tolerance of less than 1% and is temperature compensated. Fixed output
voltages 1.2V, 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.0V, 2.5V, 2.8V, 3.0V, 3.3V, and 5.0V and an adjustable version are available
in a small 5-pin SOT-23 package. Other key features include zero off-mode current, reverse battery
protection, thermal shutdown and current limit. The SPX5205 is an excellent choice for use in battery-
powered applications, and where powe
r conservation is desired such as: cellular/ cordless telephones, radio
control systems, and portable computers.

Note 1:
The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of maximum operating junction temperature, T
J (max)
, the junction to ambient thermal
resistance, and the ambient, J
A
, and the ambient temperature T
A
. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient temperature is
given: P
D (max)
= (T
J (max)
- T
A
)/ J
A
, exceeding the maximum allowable power limit will result in excessive die temperature; thus, the
regulator will go into thermal shutdown. The J
A
of the SPX5205 is 220°C/W mounted on a PC board.
Note 2:
Not applicable to output voltages of less than 2V.
